If you are passionate about creating real solutions that help businesses with cutting-edge technology, want to be challenged to think out of the box and be in a position where you can impact change on a daily basis, then LightEdge can offer you a dynamic corporate environment built on teamwork and personal responsibility.

The Executive Assistant (EA) provides high‑impact administrative, operational, and communication support to LightEdge’s Executive Leadership Team. This role is pivotal in enabling executives to operate at scale: orchestrating complex calendars, travel, board materials, executive meetings, and cross‑functional workflows while maintaining absolute discretion and a digital‑first, detail‑obsessed approach. The EA partners closely with Sales, Finance, Marketing/, MarCom HR/Talent, Legal, Product, and Operations to keep priorities moving and deliver executive‑level artifacts on time and in brand

Responsibilities:

  • Own complex calendar orchestration, meeting logistics, and time‑blocking for competing executive priorities; anticipate conflicts and resolve proactively.
  • Manage end‑to‑end travel (air, hotel, ground, itineraries) and expense reporting with accuracy and timeliness; optimize travel within budget constraints.
  • Track deliverables, deadlines, and follow‑ups for the executive(s); create reminders, checklists, and weekly status to streamline workflow.
  • Prepare, proof, and coordinate executive presentations, pre‑reads, and briefing documents for executive meetings using approved LightEdge templates.
  • Consolidate inputs from cross‑functional leaders; ensure version control, data accuracy, and on‑time distribution of materials.
  • Draft agendas; capture decisions, action items, and owners; circulate minutes and follow‑up trackers; monitor progress and escalate risks.
  • Coordinate executive roundtables and advisory sessions (CAB/PAB/Analyst briefings) in partnership with Marketing/Events; support SKO, Presidents Club, and executive retreats as needed.
  • Serve as the first point of contact and liaison between the executive(s) and internal/external stakeholders; triage requests and protect time.
  • Partner with Marketing/Comms to ensure brand‑compliant communications (PowerPoint, letterhead, email signature) and with HR/Talent for interview scheduling and onboarding touchpoints.
  • Improve administrative processes (templates, checklists, automation) to reduce cycle time and errors; maintain executive SOPs and playbooks.
  • Use Microsoft 365 (Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint), expense/travel platforms, and collaboration systems; uphold document hygiene and secure sharing aligned to brand guidelines.

Qualifications

  • 5–7+ years of experience as an Executive Assistant (supporting C‑level or senior executives in a fast‑moving, growth‑oriented environment).
  • Expert calendar, travel, and expense management; strong written communication, proofreading, and presentation support skills.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft 365 and virtual collaboration (Teams/SharePoint/OneDrive); comfort with branded templates and executive‑ready formatting.
  • High integrity, sound judgment, and ability to manage confidential information.
  • Experience coordinating board materials and executive offsites
  • Setup Executive Sponsor check-ins
  • Background supporting multiple executives simultaneously; process improvement or project coordination experience.
  • Anticipation & Ownership: Proactive problem‑solver who sees around corners and closes loops without being asked.
  • Communication Excellence: Clear, concise, executive‑level writing and interpersonal presence; adept at summarizing and escalating.
  • Organization & Detail: Meticulous with calendars, logistics, and artifacts; strong version control and documentation discipline.
  • Speed & Adaptability: Thrives in dynamic priorities and tight deadlines; maintains composure and quality.
  • Hybrid; occasional travel to executive meetings, offsites, SKO, or partner/customer events as needed.
  • Work products must adhere to LightEdge brand standards and use approved templates

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
